february 17, 2019 sixth sunday in ordinary time
luke 6:17, 20-26Jesus came down with the twelve
and stood on a stretch of level ground
with a great crowd of his disciples
and a large number of the people
from all Judea and Jerusalem
and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon.
And raising his eyes toward his disciples he said:
“Blessed are you who are poor,
for the kingdom of God is yours.
Blessed are you who are now hungry,
for you will be satisfied.
Blessed are you who are now weeping,
for you will laugh.
Blessed are you when people hate you,
and when they exclude and insult you,
and denounce your name as evil
on account of the Son of Man.
Rejoice and leap for joy on that day!
Behold, your reward will be great in heaven.
For their ancestors treated the prophets in the same way.
But woe to you who are rich,
for you have received your consolation.
Woe to you who are filled now,
for you will be hungry.
Woe to you who laugh now,
for you will grieve and weep.
Woe to you when all speak well of you,
for their ancestors treated the false
prophets in this way.” -
Fr. kevin's corner
Greetings in the Lord…
Change is a bit of a challenge for all of us. With every transition comes both uncertainty and opportunity. I take this opportunity to introduce myself and hopefully ease some uncertainty.
I am Fr. Kevin Gualano (please call me
Fr. Kevin). I grew up in the Lehigh Valley and I have a younger sister and brother. I am a graduate of Easton Area High School and during which I volunteered at Suburban Rescue Squad as an EMT
I have a B. S. is in Physical Chemistry, from Gannon University, with a minor in
Psychology. After college, I worked a few years at Dun & Bradstreet where I wrote
financial programs. I graduated from St. Charles Borromeo Seminary with an M.A. in Pastoral Theology and recently I was sent for further studies where I earned a Master of Science in Church Management from the
Villanova School of Business.
I have been ordained for 14 years during when I served as an Assistant Pastor at the Cathedral of St. Catharine of Siena and St. Joseph the Worker Parishes. I then served as the Chaplain of Bethlehem Catholic High School, and then as the Newman Chaplain of both Muhlenberg and Moravian Colleges.
I enjoy hiking, bicycling, skiing, and a really good rain storm.
I am extremely happy and excited to be
appointed your Administrator of Most Blessed Sacrament Parish. I look forward to this great journey of faith, that the Holy Spirit has gifted us.
May God Bless you,
Fr. Kevin
